SET UP

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Use a reinforced hose pipe with an internal diameter of 1/2” and connect to the mains water supply. Before attaching the hose to the pressure washer flush the hose through with some clean water to remove any foreign matter from within the hose. Connect female quick connection hose fitting to inlet on the front of the machine
CONNECTING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE (PW2200 ONLY)
Insert the high pressure hose into the hose fitting at the lower rear of the machine and screw the collar onto the threaded outer
ensuring the connector is tight. The PW2500 is pre-connected via the inside of the hose storage reel. Attach the other end of the high pressure hose to the gun .
To attach the hose, push the male hose connector into the underside of the gun and screw the collar onto the gun fitting. Ensure that the connection is tight to prevent leakage.
ASSEMBLING THE LANCE AND NOZZLE
Push the nozzle into the gun as
and screw the threaded male lance connector into the gun, again ensuring that the connection is tight.
WARNING!
Ensure the nozzle is locked into position, failure to ensure this could result in the nozzle being ejected under high pressure when operating the gun.
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
WARNING!
Ensure the On/Off switch is in the ‘Off’ position.
Using an RCD plugged into a 13A mains socket, DO NOT turn the power on. DO NOT touch the plug with wet hands.

OPERATION

•  WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply Section 1 safety instructions.
• Dry running can seriously damage the unit.
• Use washer on a flat, levelled surface, in an upright position. Failure to do so will invalidate your warranty. Never lay the washer down during use.
•  DO NOT leave washer switched on for more than 15 minutes without operating trigger.

Important!
The washer motor will stop as soon as the gun trigger is released and will restart when the trigger is squeezed. Always allow at least 5 seconds between releasing the trigger and restarting.
PRIMARY CHECKS
Check that the inlet filter is clean; pump delivery and pressure will be reduced if blocked. Never use the machine without a filter (which is fitted inside the inlet connector). Ensure that the water supply, high pressure hose and gun are correctly connected, and that air can circulate around the washer freely.
SAFETY CATCH OPERATION
To prevent inadvertent operation of the unit the safety catch should always be engaged when the gun is not in use. Open the safety catch as in fig.3 to lock the trigger against the guard.
BLEEDING THE GUN
It is very important to bleed the gun before using the pressure washer. Squeeze the trigger BEFORE turning the electrical supply on. This allows any air trapped inside the pressure washer and gun to be removed before using the unit. Continue holding the trigger for approximately one minute to allow any excess air out of the unit. Water will flow through the gun at low pressure during this procedure.
OPERATING THE MACHINE
Hold the spray gun firmly to counteract the recoil caused by the high pressure of the water. Before switching on ensure that the lance is not directed at people, objects or animals prior to being directed at the object to be cleaned. It is recommended that the trigger is depressed before switching on the unit before every use. This reduces the back pressure and amperage draw which prevents fuses blowing. Switch the machine on by turning the switch to the ‘On’ position .
Release the handle safety catch .
Point the lance at the object to be cleaned and depress the trigger fully. When the trigger is released the motor will switch off automatically.
ADJUSTING THE SPRAY PATTERN
The fan nozzle can be adjusted from pencil point to fan jet by rotating the body of the nozzle as indicated in
CAUTION!
The pencil point setting is very aggressive. It is recommended that for most cleaning applications, a 20° spray angle is used to avoid damage to the surface being sprayed.
Note:
The pressure of the spray on the surface you are cleaning increases as you move the nozzle closer to the surface.
For the high pressure Turbo spray fit the turbo nozzle. This nozzle is intended for maximum cleaning affect.
USING DETERGENT
Use only detergents approved for use in pressure washers.
PW2200:

• The PW2200 has the facility to use two different detergents (e.g: a traffic film remover and a general detergent).
• Fill the detergent tanks with the required detergents (if required, only one tank can be used).
• Turn the detergent selector control
  

in the direction of the tank containing the required detergent.
PW2500:
Fill the detergent tank
at the rear of the machine.
BOTH MACHINES:
To switch to detergent mode, simply push the variable nozzle forwards to activate the low pressure setting. Pull the nozzle backwards to resume normal washing.(fig.6)
Dirt is dissolved by applying detergent to the dry surface. On vertical surfaces, work from the bottom upwards.
Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes, but DO NOT allow the surface to dry out.
To wash down select the variable spray jet nozzle set on the wide fan setting .
When you have finished the soap application, remove the bottle and flush clean water through the tube until it is cleaned thoroughly. Note: Failure to clean properly will cause the injection system to become clogged and inoperable.
WHEN WASHING IS COMPLETED
Switch the power supply off by turning switch to ‘Off’ position .

• Turn off the water supply tap.
• Discharge residual pressure by pressing the trigger until no more water comes out of the nozzle.

WARNING!
Failure to discharge pressure could result in personal injury.

• Disconnect the inlet and high pressure outlet hoses.
• Wipe the machine clean and dry and store in a clean, safe, dry, childproof location.

Note:

• DO NOT leave motor switched on for more than 15 minutes without operating trigger.
• If the water pressure drops (e.g. someone else using the same water supply), the washer will not operate correctly. Immediately switch the motor off and wait until the pressure is restored.
  

TROUBLESHOOTING

MAINTENANCE

WARNING!
Ensure the pressure washer is switched off and unplugged from the mains electrical power supply and turned off at the mains water tap before performing any maintenance tasks. Check, clean or renew the inlet filter (which is fitted inside the inlet connector,) after every 50 hours of use. Use only genuine Sealey spares for this machine. Failure to do so could result in personal injury and will invalidate the warranty.
NOZZLES
Ensure that both nozzles are kept clean and free of debris. The variable nozzle should be lubricated regularly. Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump pressure to be too high and cleaning is immediately required. Separate the nozzle from the lance by unscrewing anti-clockwise .
Clear the nozzle of any debris. Flush the nozzle with water. Reconnect the nozzle to the lance. Ensure that the nozzle connection is tight.
WATER FILTER
The pressure washer is equipped with a water inlet filter to protect the pump. To clean the conical filter, remove quick fit connection and the filter from the pump inlet. Back flush the filter to clean. Replace filter and quick connection immediately to prevent any ingress of foreign matter into the pump.
COOLING SYSTEM
The air vents, in and around the pressure washer, must be kept clean and free of any obstructions to ensure proper air cooling of the motor during operation.
WARNING!
Prevent water from penetrating the vents of the pressure washer to minimize the risk of damage to the machine and to reduce the risk of shock to the operator.
GENERAL
Check unit, gun, nozzle, hose, connections and cables for damage. Immediately replace or repair with genuine parts.
